SLOW PDF PRINTING ON M2552ci

[vsluggo]

We have a construction company that is trying to print PDF 2 x 3 blueprints at 50 % of the size or on 12" x 18" sized paper, so its to scale and they are complaining that it takes 1/2 hour to print a 16 MB file......
Yes we are using the KX drivers , yes it is defaulted to B& W/grayscale we are printing as an image,
Everything else prints alright. They say that the Konica Minolta C252 they had printed faster than this....
Their IT guy is putting it off on us...he says he's done "all the right things" (but we've all heard that before)
ANY SOLUTIONS?

What’s the OS you are printing from and have you tried sending the pdf directly to the printer (usb key or command line) instead of through the driver?

Upgrade firmware to the latest and use different pdf reader. I usually recommend Foxit pdf reader.

Make the originals 12x18 in the first place , it you are letting the print driver convert to 50% that is why
its printing slow.
take the pdf to a different machine same models and test them.

Open the spooler on the computer and see what the file is ballooning up to. I have a customer with a Ricoh wide format that their 16MB balloons to 1.08GB using a PS driver.

With the KX driver you can also set it to use PCL.

I had the same issue with the same model I updated firmware and reinstalled drivers worked for me

I had a 3252Ci printing pdf files slow and it turned out to be a bad network drop.
